Meepo Hurricane Performance Review - Smooth, Fast, and Powerful 🔥 

John Paul, I never thought that there'd be a niche for commentating a time-run in a niche market for esk8, but my god you had me interested the whole time. LOL. Anything is possible, I guess. Can't wai to get this board.

Thanks for having us here, John. Great Review BTW.

This course seems like the perfect setup for the Ownboard Zeus with its big battery and stability at high speeds.

Meepo continues to impress, as do your spot on reviews!

thX for this video, i ordered one. so happy ...

How did you get the speed in the window of your camera? Where have you been bro are you alright? 😒

This is the video I was looking for! Thankyou, your videos are great

Just got back from taking my Hurricane off-road up a trail people go mountain biking with my buddy and his Onewheel and this thing was pulling me up some steep dirt roads and trails that I was so surprised about cause I’m a BIG guy, I’m 285lbs and it was having no trouble. It did slow down to about 8mph on one particular super steep spot that I completely expected it to fail at pulling me up but it stayed at 8 the whole time for about 250ft of constant grade. I’m absolutely pumped I bought this board.

Thanks JP for another great review. I really thought it would have been slightly more than two seconds considering the battery size and pneumatic tires. Still, that board is awesome! That GUT is an awesome place to test the boards! Hopefully V4 ride this weekend.

What happened to all your old video's?

How long did your original pneumatics last you? I am planning on getting both but keep reading about how they blow or fail consistently. If they did blow, how did you end up addressing the issue?

Man this Hurricane is a beast ! Great video 💪🏼

Looks like your PSI was a little low in the video.. Have you checked your tire pressure and done the tests again?

As always, a verry interristing video to have a solid idea of the performance of boards. This one seems to be a really good performer… moreover with AT wheels. Sure with urethane, it would perform even better !

Dude awesome video love the gut list!! Pumped for more boards see what takes it!!

What street is the Gut? I live on Main Street in Westport and I'm trying to place it. I've had a Meepo V2 which I bought after watching your pre-release review. I use it to commute to NYC but NYC streets are getting terrible -- particularly Park Ave in the 40s. I haven't wanted to replace it because I love the handle carved into the board and Meepo seems to have eliminated that.

Yess! Been waiting for this!

Im about to buy two of these. what kind of real world range are you getting? on my at2 we get around 11 miles before reaching 1 battery bar and have to turn around.

Great result! Are you going to test out the range, or is it already pointless with a monster battery like this?

Wow super fast, but part of me thought it would be 15-20 seconds faster on the gut. After looking at the the speeds and time, not sure the gut can be conquered at much less than 4:30 safely. You would have to be 30+ the whole way. What was the battery level after the run? As always another great review. Thanks!!

Hi. Love the Gut test and the channel's content in general. So which speed mode were you on for this ride? Thanks for compiling the list for us! Stay safe!

Great video. Would you be interested in doing the Verreal RS? I think it would do pretty well in the match-up on the channel. I have had mine about 6 months and it is pretty torquey.

U know it's gonna be a quick one when he talks about safety gear for 2mins

Love the real world comparison you have with "The List" for the gut run. Please, please, please get an Ecomobl ET and or ET2!!! I need to know where my ET would be on The List!!! Nobody has done a head to head with these boards!!!

Nice video bro. I’m trying to choose between the meepo hurricane and the ownboard zeus. Which should I get?

Would love to see a Propel Endeavor on the Gut. The Gut performance of the Backfire Zealot was the reason I bought my Zealot S

Hope you checked and fixed the tire pressure before hitting the gut. Thay look too low on the Broll, that will cause alot of rolling resistance.

That's crazy how you get to do these videos all over again with the upgraded ESC. Do you have a safe place to do top speed tests? FYI nobody has video of 35 mph on stock wheels/gears.

I think you got the prototype/review boards vs the retail board that's supposedly be capped at 30mph vs 35+mph and different torque profile.

Question: Doesn't wrecking with a huge visor like on that black helmet tend to break your neck if you land wrong? I'd like to get such a visor, but I am concerned about wiping out with it.

Hey Paul great video. Please do the gut again with the street wheels.

Man, that things HAUL'S!!!

Can you do a maintenance video??

mines coming tuesday.. meepo tells me its only 30a of current on the motors.. not too great… ill def give it a proper testing.. good stuff!

I don’t know if this has been addressed yet being that this video is from about 6 months ago, but isn’t the board advertised for a top speed of 35 mph?

I ride around shirtless on turbo and this guys ready for war. He’s a smarter cookie.

Hey man tryna decide between the hurricane vs the atlas 2wd real hard decision, what do you guys think?

I've got mine coming next week! Can't wait! Just wondering if you (or anyone) has tried the 190mm wheels Meepo offers. Bet thats really smooth. Might have to get some.

please get your hands on a lacroix, i wanna see the level of difference between their boards and the rest of the market

have you ever built your own board? after buying all these prebuilt boards and having to fix them up myself when they break, I decided to just built my own. The specs on my homebrew board is insane, it would blow any meepo out of the water. I threw a 60v battery on it (72v when fully charged) with some 6378 motors, 8" pneumatic tires, and a spintend ESC. my top speed is 51mph, granted, the highest I've gotten it to is 40mph because it tends to get a little wobbly after that! I think my total cost is around $1200, oh and I forgot to mention my range is 64 miles.

I was expecting to see higher speeds on non-incline sections. Surprised I didn't see anything over 30mph when it has a 35mph top speed. Am I missing something?

well this board seems like an awesome purchase

Does it max out at 30mph? Their advertisement and your previous video say 35 mph top speed

test out the beast board viper. i was gonna upgrade to this hurricane but looks like range is the only thing im gonna improve on. i can do full speed up most normal hills or accelerate to full speed unless my battery is low

I think you really need to take the Zeus up there. I think it would totally smash the list.

I've heard this thing is supposed to go 35-37mph and they claim 35mph on their website, why does it seem limited to 30 under no load and under powered in general?

By the way @JohnPaulYT the meepo awd pro you had and tested had old esc, they updated to a new esc in 2020 to give out 15-20% more torque lmao, try the gun again! Tighten the trucks btw.

What a great video

So... you are going to do this again with the street wheels right?

would love to see you review the Miles Panther

I wanna see this board with 105mm or 120mm cloud wheels

Looks like a great board over all and I am really considering buying it, although there site claims the board can get up to 37 mph and it seems its only capable of reaching 30mph.

Are you able to carve good on this board?

is the backfire zealot s worth it over the original zealot for the extra 150?

Nice job 👍 You need to check the time on 90mm wheels 😉

What happened to you? We want to know why you just deleted all your videos then stopped uploading? You were by far the best eskate channel.

They go to all that work. Could they not print something cool onto the belts?

Do you think it would be possible to put those wheels on a V3?

I would love to see how Propel Endeavor S or Pro compete on the gut!

I want one.

I'd love to see this one head to head up against the Eovan GTS carbon pro. I have one and it is a beast, but sadly after about 900 miles I am starting to have issues. I want this Meepo, but just can't justify the $1300 right now...

Love to see the ownboard zeus on the gut.

what happened to John?

hadean?

Not super impressed with my hurricane. I'm 80kg and can slide/ 180 pretty consistently on skate wheels on the evolve GTR and like to full speed carve on ATs. The hurricane has now thrown me off a couple of times, luckily I wear FULL armour jacket and wrist guards. pretty annoying that NONE of the early reviews mention that the remote is basically on/ off in Level 4. and really doesn't work with gloves on. The evolve GTR remote has twice the travel and is way smoother/ more progressive. This may not be a problem for racing around a go kart track if you're lucky enough to do that, but for commuting/ cruising level 4 is sketchy! (for pure off road you'd want bigger wheels/ grippier tyres- and then the power may not feel as jerky). When doing 25-30mph on wet roads, the brakes in level 3 just lock up the AT wheels, very little modulation (but to be fair they are safer in the dry than GTR brakes that are just too weak!). Yes this tank is powerful and but it is not very useable. The GTR is to weak power for AT wheels in my opinion (unless you are a lightweight beginner) but it is way safer for commuting. Real world range: In level 3+a bit of 4 average 20+mph, i have been getting 15 miles (85kg geared up) with a couple of small hills. I should have bought the Hadean, 2kg lighter, bamboo flexi deck is better for carving and remote is way smoother plus integrated brake lights. Meepo if you are reading this: please make some remote compatible ergonomic wrist guards, many of your customers will be breaking bones.

I’d say your NLS pro had a defect because there’s no way that it’d be 2nd to last out of all those names. Especially beating their v2&v3. Doesn’t even make sense lol

That's a big speed gap between mode 2 and 3. To me mode 3 top speed should be 25mph and 4 30+mph.

Yeah but can it pull a jeep?

please put hadean on this test

Instead of riding! The only i can do is watch video of the hurricane!!! I wish they have a better customer service

Does anyone else hear ‘meatball hurricane’ whenever someone says Meepo Hurricane a little fast?

I really want to see the Exway atlas against this thing!

It claim 30 miles pretty sure like 20 miles range after pushing it hard after

The limiting factor of the new powerful boards is not power but stability / rider skill. The stupid double kingpin trucks make absolutely no sense on any of them.

To me this doesn't make sense when you're using bigger sized wheels you have less torque so if you were to try do an accurate review you'd need the same sized wheels on each board... Try this with the street wheels?...

Explained greatly thanks

Zeus or this.???

Inflate your tires before doing these tests. This is an obvious mistake.
